1: For some reason, during the install, and this has happened with
every 7.2Beta release, a Recommended install will not accept my
Extension CD, but if I do Customized or Expert and check the Extension
CD star it works perfectly. Recommended just keeps popping it out and
asking for the Extension CD.
2: Mousedrake, and mouseconfig for that matter, don't work on Beta3, or
at least on my copy. It worked on Beta2, but it was buggy. I have a
Microsoft Intellipoint Trackball. This is an odd little bugger in that
all three buttons work properly with the Intellimouse PS/2 setting, but
the scroll doesn't. That's not my problem, though. I get this error
whenever I run mouseconfig or mousedrake.
[root@mother jj]# mouseconfig
Please wait while probing serial ports...
Undefined subroutine &mouse::names called at /usr/sbin/mouseconfig line
25.

Now, if I do an Expert install and choose Intellimouse at the choose
(with an intellimouse, not my trackball) it scrolls and works just fine,
but when it comes to the X configuration I get errors. When I do an
Expert install with the trackball the cursor goes everywhere (IE...
incorrect mouse setting).
I've considered trying to upgrade to the Cooker release of mouse* but I
wanted to try and get some feedback first.
3: XFdrake doesn't work, either. I'm starting to wonder if it's
actually a problem, or if it's just me. The error for this is as
follows.
[root@mother jj]# XFdrake
